Description

I decided to try and get a better image of IC405 tonight. As usual the sky was not very

cooperative and I had to contend with clouds moving in and out most of the night. Because

of the clouds I had to discard a lot of my light frames. I last imaged this object with my AT72ED

Refractor. Tonight I decided to use my Orion ED80 hoping that more aperture would

equate to capturing more nebulosity. However as it turned out this image is not any

better than my last image. With all of that said please enjoy my most recent image of

IC 405 the Flaming Star Nebula.

Description: Did some reprocessing trying to bring out more
detail in the nebula. The change is subtle but there
is a little more detail. We just can't leave it alone.
